High salary at a likely failing start up. What to do?

adrenocorticotropine@alien.topB to StartupsEnglish · 1 year ago

I have a good salary at a failing start up, and I can’t seem to find any jobs that provide a similar salary. I love my current job, but I’m worried that the company will not be able to secure enough funding to last us 6 more months.

Should I take a pay cut (150k --> 100k) to work at a different company? Or should I wait it out for another few months at my current company?

For context, I support my SO in a HCOL area and we don’t have much savings. Trying to build that up right now…

Any advice would be appreciated. Thank you!

If the company fails, it’s $0 salary. I’d say keep interviewing even if you take the lower paying job so you can bounce back once the market recovers and in the meantime you have something to keep the lights on?
